The Kid's Last Fight was a song written by [[Bob Merrill]] and first recorded by [[Frankie Laine]] in the early 1950's at Columbia Records. The recording by Laine reached #20 on the [[Billboard_Hot_100|Billboard charts]].

The song tells the story of a young fighter, the Kid McCoy, fighting against Tiger Wilson. He hopes to win enough prize money to buy a bungalow for he and his darling Bess. The Kid is fighting while battling a fever and although he knocks out Tiger Wilson, the song says "Twas the fever that won the fight".
